Laser treatment of cervical erosion

Cervical erosion is often a manifestation of chronic cervicitis, but the degree of cervical erosion in patients is more serious, especially when cervical erosion develops into severe, it is more harmful to women, not only causing endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, secondary female infertility, and even secondary cancer. Therefore, it is very important to find an effective method to treat cervical erosion. There are many methods to treat cervical erosion, such as electrocautery, laser, etc. The mechanism and process of laser treatment are as follows:

The principle of laser treatment for cervical erosion is: using the thermal coagulation of laser to destroy the function of the diseased tissue, turning the target tissue into a dry, solid necrotic coagulation; the laser carbonizes the eroded tissue to form a scab, and after the scab falls off, the wound surface is covered with new squamous epithelium, thereby healing the erosion surface; at the same time, the thermal coagulation sealing of the laser has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and hemostatic effects.

When women with cervical erosion are treated with laser, the treatment time is usually 3 to 7 days after the menstruation is over. The patient takes the lithotomy position, disinfects and covers the vagina, and uses a vaginal speculum to gently open the vagina to fully expose the cervix and fully clear the cervical secretions. After disinfection again, use a laser treatment device to burn from the outer edge of the eroded surface to the cervical opening in a circular manner from the outside to the inside. If bleeding occurs, the distance can be extended to thermally coagulate the cervix to stop bleeding. It should be noted that the treatment range should exceed the eroded surface by 2mm; at the same time, the operation should avoid burning the surrounding normal cervical tissue to avoid leaving scars and causing infertility.
